$STORJ has changed the charging policy for S3 storage, which is malicious towards small users. I am currently preparing to close my account.
In short, the minimum monthly consumption is now $5. This means that unless you store more than 1.2TB of data on Storj, you will still be charged $5 even if you only store 1kb.
WTF? I only used it for backup because it seemed cheap, but now it really doesn't compare to Cloudflare R2. R2 not only provides 10GB of free space but also does not charge for outbound traffic.
I took a look at the forum and indeed many users are complaining; I am not the only one who finds this unreasonable...
I guess I will wait until I have 1.2TB of data that needs to be uploaded to the cloud before using Storj again. For now, it's time to say goodbye to Storj.
Help, what should I do if my polymarket balance was stolen? I bet on gold at 2600-2700 and won, just look casually in the comments. Someone mentioned some trading tool, then switched to a link, and it jumped to a scam website called polytrade, which asked me to sign in when logging in. I signed once, but then it asked me to sign again, which felt off, so I didn't sign. However, when I returned to polymarket, I found that all my balance had been transferred away. Damn, I won 12 and got up to 15, but they took all my 15.4 balance. What should I do now? I have contacted polymarket's customer service, but haven't received a response. Is there any feature like freezing accounts? The signature is an Ethereum generation one signature, with no detailed information, so I don’t know if it authorized a permanent transfer. I'm really panicking, I deposited a total of 28u, had 15u stolen, and half of it is due today. Do I need to claim shares?
$BTC Who is adding to the position? It has risen a lot in a short period of time several times. I also bought BTC in Polymarket. It can't fall to 90,000 and rise to 100,000. I am so scared.
Storage + GPU, what heights will Storj reach in the future?
As one of the pioneers in the storage sector, Storj is currently one of the best-applied storage projects. It provides distributed cloud storage that supports Amazon S3 standards for a wide range of developers and users. In 2024, Storj Labs acquired Valdi. Valdi is a company dedicated to distributed GPU leasing, providing consumers with high-cost-performance distributed cloud computing resources by aggregating underutilized GPU resources. These resources support computational power for AI model training while reducing costs.
